Blackwater was the first real Large scale battle in ASOIAF, the others were more akin to skirmishes. There are still A LOT of battles to come.

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
Spartacus utilizes green screen and they are going for a different over-the top, violent, bloody style while GOT uses real locations and is a different tone. Not nearly as much as an action series as Spartacus, but they did a fantastic job last season with the Battle on Black Water.

because GOT "wasted" that big budget on things like great writers, great actors, big ass scenes, 18 different damn lands and castles and cities and shyt.. and they film on location. the cost of the making the digital wolves almost broke the damn bank cause they made it so realistic. and maybe not a lot of battles, but they was sword fighting to death with that 1 vs ???? the whole time

i love sparty... its good for what its good for... a few bits of talk and a lot of blood, killing, sex and violence. but you couldn't name anybody who's some sort of movie star or been in more than 5.. batiatus excluded... and you damn well know the dialogue ain't matching up. and every single set is green screen


i don't want to see that shyt on GOT... that'd be like using crayons to paint the mona lisa

you saw the pilot... and no fighting... but the opening scene is the night's watch battling with the white walkers.... that scene alone has better special effects than anything on sparticus.. it looks real.. not cartoony. then 10 seconds later a guy gets beheaded


but you didn't see any fighting.... come on now


but yes... sex and violence... sparty got it on lock... story, special effects, story, sets, and general show.... come on now

Or a homophobe. :mjpls:

Spartacus caters heavy to the gay audience.


Spartacus ain't seeing GoT on 1v1 sword fights though. Jaime vs Ned is still the best sword fight I've seen on TV.

Yeah, I'm sure. While that was a crowning moment for me in Spartacus history I still like Jaime v Ned fight more, looks cool without the slo-mo and camera trembles.

:rudy:

Eddard Stark Vs Jaime Lannister - Game of Thrones - YouTube

Lol fukk that Zorro fencing shyt.

And what's so awful about that scene?

Looks authentic and cooler to me for guys using longswords the men that get bodied here there's hardly any CGI. Where Jory gets stabbed in the eye looks real whereas Spartacus would have slo-mo'd it to death and showered ridiculous amounts of blood.

You can't change my mind breh, I like how Spartacus' handles it's large battles but 1v1 I give it to GoT.

Game of Thrones is moreso about political chess matches and dialogue rather than battle / fight scenes.
